London Heathrow Airport

CHASKA, Minn. — The flag at half-staff over Hazeltine National was enough to take the edge off the Ryder Cup.

Arnold Palmer occupied everyone's thoughts on Monday.

"There's a hole in the game that can't be filled," Phil Mickelson said.

Tributes poured in for Palmer, who died Sunday at age 87. Even as European players arrived from an overnight flight out of Heathrow Airport, any conversation about the Ryder Cup was secondary to their thoughts on the King.

"The legacy he leaves behind is very important," Martin Kaymer said. "He inspired millions of people. That's what we as humans should try to do."
